Hello once again My readers. Hope you had a great weekend. My weekend ends with a good note because I get to write My blog by the end of it. Slowly slowly, the readers are increasing and that makes me very happy! So thank you all for your support and love. Oh by the way, which one of you guys has your own wonderland? You know a tiny place in your head, where you think all the bizarre and crazy things? A place where anything is possible? A place where you either saving the world and creating new ones. You know, Wonderland. I bet all of you at some point of time have had your wonderlands. You don't have to tell Me what they are but I sure as hell will tell you what was Mine. :-)

It was kinda inspired from The Matrix in which a character just like Morpheous would give Me a choice between the Blue Pill and the Red Pill. The Blue Pill would give Me All that I ever dreamed off! The Money, The Fame, The Power, The Love, everything! But The Red Pill he said was something more. He said if I would take the Red Pill I would enter a world where nothing is certain and I would be on My own and I would have to Face every Challenge head-on and survive each day. Of course, any one would choose the Blue Pill and I was about to do the same but then something inside of Me told Me not too. Yes, I chose the Red Pill because deep down inside, I just knew that I was always meant to take the Red Pill. And so I did what I was always Destined to do. I mean, can you imagine, even in My Wonderland I chose the Tough Way Out. And I will tell you why ...

One of the greatest fighters in Mma history George St. Pierre once tweeted that he met this great trainer from Japan and GSP was telling him that he is waiting to get back into the Ring and start fighting again. He said the wait is killing him because he has to give his hand time to recover from the injury. And all that Japanese Sansei said was, "GSP, Even Waiting Is Training." Amazing words, aren't they? I mean, if you think of it, they have so much of depth and meaning! I related to those Words instantly because even in Wonderland, when I took the Red Pill, I knew I had to wait for My Time to come. And till today, even in Reality I live by that code. I keep on telling Myself everyday, Even Waiting is Training.

Morpheous may not come to Me in My visions but I feel the Universe always giving Me Signs and Signals. Telling Me that I have to wait. I have to Wait and Train. The Universe tells Me, Mahaakshay, I will test you. I will make you go through all the Punishment that is necessary for you to become strong. I will put you in situations where you will only be misunderstood and hated. You will be alone in your fight. You will be called names. You will never be loved. You will have to fight this war of yours, by yourself. I will never stop testing you. I will give everyone what they want and will make them shine in their glory, even if they are not worth it. But you will have to wait. No matter how many hours you Workout or dedicate yourself to the cause or give your all that you have, I will always make the people say you are still not good enough. I will show you what greed does to people. I will make the world hate you and they will party and fall in love but You will have to wait. I will show you what Pain feels like. I will show you the true color of this world where governments fall. Children who die because of others silly mistakes and people killing each other and call it a movement of peace. I will make you go through hell but You will have to Wait ... Until your time will come ...

Yes. Your time will come because the Universe is Just, Fair and Noble to all. But the reason your time will come later is because you will Train and be Patient and become the Man you were always meant to be. You will become something more than you ever imagined. And when Your Time will come, you will cherish it. You will live it and you will be Worth Every Moment of it! You will earn your right to shine because you know what the Darkness felt. You will learn to Respect because you will know what humiliation means. You will be victorious because you will know what it feels like to fail. You will be loved because you know how it feels to be Hated. You will be given all the Glory because you will know what is the price of Sacrifice. And then, when you are where you want to be, You Will Know That Even Waiting Is Training ...

So this is Me, with My Beliefs and Codes and Way Of Life. You have the right to see this blog the way you want too but I know that I have job to do. And that is to Train and Wait. Train and Wait. Train and Wait and Believe that one day My Time Will Come ...

This is Me, Mahaakshay Chakraborty. And I chose the Red Pill. Which Pill will You take?

We all have our Heroes. We all have our Idols and Role Models because we all look up to some one. Some who Inspire us. Some who Motivate us. Some who show us the way. Who make us the Men and Women we want to be. Sometimes, there are many we look upto. But sometimes, lucky chaps like Me get all those amazing Qualities in only One Person. And that Man is My Father. Yes, My Father, the Greatest Man I know. The Greatest Man I will ever know. I am truly blessed to be the Eldest Son of Mr.Mithun Chakraborty and yesterday was His Birthday and today is Father's Day! I don't think there is any better day than this for Me dedicate this Blog to Him! And before I go any further, I want to wish All those Amazing Fathers out there a Very Happy Father's Day! You are truly a Blessing to all your Children. Some of us know that now and some of us one day will. And for the record My Dad is only 27 ++ Years old. :-)

On the 30th of July this year I will turn 28. No, I am not reminding you guys about it. The reason I am mentioning that is because it took Me a while to understand My Dad. I think it took more time than it was required. While growing up, back in the day, when I was 8 years old, Dad used to be busy with 4 shifts of Shooting everyday and I hardly got to see Him. But trust Me, I was petrified of Him! I mean, His presence used to rattle Me in Fear even though He never used to Shout or Yell. He used to be so tired that He used to come Home and Sleep. But even then, I always knew that He was My Father and the Boss of the House. His word was the final judgement and not even God could change it. For many years, even after that, I had the same Fear of My Father. Even during My teenage Years, I never went up to him and confiding in Him about My 'growing-up' problems or even My feelings towards Girls. But Dad starting realizing that and He started opening up to Me. He started becoming more of a Friend to Me and joking around with Me. He started watching the Shows I liked. He started becoming the Buddy I always wanted. But even then, the Fear in Me never went. Not until I hit Rock Bottom ...

I remember so clearly. It was right after Jimmy. The Film bombed at the Box Office and I was getting insulted and abused left, right and centre and I was completely shattered with no hope for a better tomorrow. But during My Darkest Hour, My Father was there for Me. He gave Me strength. He gave Me Hope and more importantly, He made Me believe in Me again. I know what He was going through then. It was the same Pain that I felt. He did and trust Me, I know what all He has done for Me! He was Strong for Me when I had No Strength and He always told Me that it is important to be a Good Human Being. His Every Word is Godly for Me. And today, whatever I am is because of His Teachings. Even today, He works for Us. He wakes up everyday and goes to Work for His 4 Children and His every Action today shows the Love for His Children. He has sacrificed everything for us and He still does. He gives us everything! We are so blessed that even before we think of something we are rewarded by it! He takes us to Holidays all around the World! And no matter how tired He gets, He comes back Home after His Shoots and Cooks for Us. So yes, I am Blessed! I am truly Blessed to be His Son and even if one day, I become 1/4 of the Man that He is, I will say that I have achieved something great in My Life !

I know there are many out there who have a problem with Me being His Son. They say I get it easy. They say I don't deserve it. Well, I can't do anything about it now, can I? I mean, God must have really been impressed with Me in My Past Life for Me to have been chosen to be the Son of Mithun Chakraborty and if given a choice, for the next billion Births, I would want to be His Son. My Dad is My Hero! My Dad is My Rockstar, My Role Model, My Inspiration! My Dad is My Friend. My Dad is My Blessing! I have promised Him many things and I swear I will do whatever it takes to make Him Proud of Me one day. And I know that 'one day' is not that Far Away. So before I go I just wanna say That I Love You Dad and You Are The Greatest Man I Will EVER Know! :-)

This is Me, Mahaakshay Chakraborty and I am the Son of Mr. Mithun Chakraborty.

Hi. My name is Mahaakshay Chakraborty. And I am writing this letter to you. This letter has been on My to-do list for a very long time now and I apologize for not writing this earlier. But no better time than the present na? So here goes. Geez, I am so nervous. I mean, I have written to you before. I know you have many names. Many call you God. Some call you Energy but I like calling you The Universe because all the components that make up the Gigantic Universe are also in Us. So yes, I am a part of You just like you have always been a part of Me. :-)

You have taught Me so much. You have given Me so much! I will never be able to thank you enough for the things you have done for Me! I know you have always been there for Me, even when I forgot to be there for you. You never wanted anything from Me. All you wanted was acknowledgement. I am sorry for all those times when I didn't say Thank You. I am sorry for the times I forgot to talk to you. I am sorry for all those times when I made My mistakes. But no matter what I did, you were always there for Me. I know there are 7 billion people on this planet and another billion types of species and you take care of all of us. You have time for all of us. To listen to our pleadings. To answer our prayers. To show mercy to us even when we do the unthinkable. You have treated us as equals even when we fight for superiority. You give us all that we want, even when we kill each other for a square-inch of land. You love us even when we fight for our religions. You gift us with Happiness even when we only choose negativity. You give so much, even when we do so little for you ...

Oh, I remember. I remember everything. How I came this far and what it took Me to come here. All those days, months and moments. The days I gave up and cried. The days I didn't wanted to go any further. The times when I just wanted to run away. Even when I was down and under, you give Me Hope. You gave Me Strength. You showed Me the way. You never left My side. You made Me believe in Myself when I couldn't believe anymore. You blessed Me with a Family who always stood beside Me. You made Me meet people who became My friends. You taught Me how to walk in the Darkness and took Me into the light. You made Me realize that when all else fails, Faith will prevail. You made Me wise enough not to repeat My mistakes. You gave Me a conscious who always told Me to do good things even when I was drowned in My own Hate. You made Me a better person when I thought I was always the odd one out. You showed Me love even when the only thing I saw was Hate ...

So dear Universe, THANK YOU! Thank you from the bottom of My heart for this beautiful life that you have given Me. I promise I will become a better person. I will never hurt anyone again. I will speak the Truth. I will be Kind and Noble to all. I will always Fight. I will Never Give Up. I will always believe in Myself. And I will always have My Faith. I will Work Hard, Stay Disciplined because I know that one day My Time will come. You will give Me everything that I want. You will always be with Me as I will always be with you. But dear universe, I have a few requests, I hope you can grant them for Me. Please bless everyone. Even the ones who don't believe in you. They need it. Remove Hate from this world. Make everyone believe that we are all the same. Please forgive the ones who consider Me as their enemy because even they are fighting their own battles. Give everyone what they want because everyone deserves happiness. Give everyone Hope and tell them no matter how tough it gets, no matter how dark it gets, the Sun will Rise again the next day and everything is going to be ok. Make them believe in Love because in the end no matter how many sons and daughters will die in the Wars we will fight, Love will change everything. Love will make them better people. Love will make them forgive. Love will lead them to heaven.

Once again Dear Universe, Thank you for being there for Me. And I will never forget you as you never forgot Me. And Dear Universe, next time you won't have to wait for Me because when you look down, you will see Me looking up and telling you Thank You. Thank You ... From the bottom of My Heart.

This is Me, Mahaakshay Chakraborty and this is My Letter to the Universe.

Hello everyone. Sorry for the delay of My Blog entry. The Chakrabortys came back from Europe on Sunday and I really wanted to rest it out and get back to My normal routine on Monday, so I thought, the best time to write this is today. And yes, Europe was awesome! We really had a great time there! We saw everything that we wanted too and we also saw many historical monuments as well and clicked many pictures there to cherish those amazing moments! It was wonderful visiting three countries in 12 days! It was a Trip to remember and to top it, I also got My Dr.Dre Bluetooth Headphones! They are spectacular! And I heard this Song from Keith Urban. It is called FOR YOU. That song is surely the Song-Of-The-Week as it is dedicated to all those brave men and women in uniforms who put their lives on the line everyday to protect their nations! It is a must hear and the Lyrics are a must-read as well! :-)

And now, we begin ...

As Morpheus said in The Matrix Reloaded, "Everything in life begins with a choice." Life is truly about the choices you make. I know that some of you may say that no, it doesn't because everything in life is pre-destined and we were always meant to do, what we were meant to do. That everything is already written for us. I agree with you folks to some level but I also believe that even though we all are chosen to do what God chose us to do, He also has given us the Power of Free Will to walk that 'Pre-Destined-Chosen-Path' the way We want too. Like for example, He has given us the Ferrari but it is up to us how we drive it. The Choice to Crash it or reach smoothly to our destination. For a while, I, Myself, thought there is no point in making these choices because in the end, we always end up being what we thought we shouldn't be. But I tell you today, We do have the Power to make our own Choices. We have The Power to Stand for What We Believe in or fall in that bottomless pit from where there in no going back ...

Many believe that this is the Year the world will come to an end but for Me, it is the Year that I was re-born. I have changed so much! In the way I think, the way I react and with the way I am with people. And that all didn't happen in an instant. It happened because I chose to change. I made My Choice. To be a better person. To see the Good Things in Life. To find the Kindness in others. To Forgive and let go of all of that Anger. To become the Man I always wanted to be. A Man who doesn't have a Heavy Conscious. Trust Me, it isn't easy. Nope. It isn't easy one bit. But that is the point, isn't it? To Stand Tall when others have fallen. To believe in the Light when you can only see the Darkness. To Hope when there is no more Faith left. To Smile even when you have tears in your eyes. To Love even when all you receive is hate from others. To Choose even when there are no choices left ...

Take this from Me, I have done my share of everything. I have been down that road. I know what it feels like to have a heavy heart. To know what I am doing is wrong but still continue to do so because it was for My own benefit. So I know where I am coming from. And being this New Version of Myself hasn't been all roses. In fact, it has been just the opposite. I think that is Irony or some Sick Joke God is playing on Me. Everyday is a test for Me. Everyday I see Hatred hating Me more and Temptation tempting Me more. Seducing Me into it's Dark Abyss and I know how tempting it is. To say, Screw All These Rules and Self-Rightousness crap and just fall in. But No, I am not. No matter how hard it gets, I am still keeping My Stand. Even though it is the toughest thing that I have ever done, I still Choose to Stand Tall. I Choose the right thing. I Choose to Fight Back because I know that even though God may not be answering my Prayers right now, even though he may be avoiding Me, he has put Me in a place to grow. To Test Me. To make Me Strong. And most importantly, to see, Whether I Stand or Whether I Fall ...

There aren't many good people left in this world. And I am not saying I am good either. But I want to believe that someday I will. This Battle I am going through, is something I will always have to face. That, in a way, is My Fate. I know that Temptation, Greed, Hunger and Lust will always be there. But no matter how much they throw at Me, I will Choose to fight back. I know it will get lonely being where I am and where I am heading. But I know I can fight this. I know I can Stand Tall because in the end, when I die, when I face god, I wanna look at him in the eye and tell Him that I tried. I really tried. I fought back. Not because I had too but because I Chose too. I have made My Choice. The question is ... Have You Made Yours?
